Tho Common Com ,a.,l. ,r,t,t season over.

The commandments st the various col.
p leges oil tho land are nos. over. The last
few days have seen them wound up all
over the North. especially in New Eng.
land, where they arc great feature in the
closing days Of June. Hundreds Of young
men have received their diplomss and
gone homo to enter upon their careo.e.
The class graduated at Yale WA the largest
in its history, 100 in number, and a China
man carried OFT the highest honors Of that
large class. The classes seemed to be large
overywhore, and the performances Of the
young bcholars on commencement day ore
spoken OF as Of O high order. n I: s M
Many eminent men attended these
commandments and addressed words OF
experience and wisdom to tho newly
/. lledged graduates. One address at Y ale,

Riitl, Ia Giles.

The hot weather Is now lully upon uH
and II becomes all persons who have due
regard for their own health and that Of
the community to see that so fsr as they
are concerned nothing Is omitted that will
render the city less healthfnl than 1t Is to
say. Wheeling, Notwithstanding her slope
to the river, Is not one Of the large towns
Of the country that figure CONSEQUENTLY
for low death rate in tho tables OF NOR.
tality.
On the contrary, che hns time and again
ran high in her death rate in tho
summer season. There Is no other ex-
PLANTATION for this than one word-flth.
We unfortunately still have that pes
tilential feature Of carly city lie, the gar
den yanlt and the back door garbage pile.
We also have aurface drainage for vast
amount Of filthy water, and we have
alleys and cutters soaked with this water
and with the otIal Of households. These
form the explanation why our death rate
is liable to run up high at this aeason Of
the year. II
AS rule people who are neglectful Of
their premises sle also neglectiul Of their
persons. They DO not keep their bodies
any cleaner than their houses or their
yards and cutters. They do not use the
Gosp and water that at this season Of the
year, next to pure air and pure food and
drink, are necessary for health. They
wear solled clothes and go with uncleansed
persons. In word, they invite disease
by all their surroundings and habits.
This cannot DO done with impunity.
The records Of disease show that in the
history Of cities aud towns filth has de.
strcyed almoRt If not rs many lives IS war.
In the fourteenth century, owing to the
extraordinary filth Of cities and towns in
Europe, almost one-!ourth OF the inhabit-
ants were swept away by one vast cpl
domic.
In modern Europe such a rAvage Ia not
possible owing to tho greatly improved
sanitary regulations. But in all large
communities filth ia always tho prevailing
menace to health, and down 10 this day
the chiaf dread oil the summer season in
cities is owing to the came cause. Even a
tropical city eau be kept comparatively
healthy in the hot season by energetic
sanitary precautions. General Butler
showed how this could be done in New
Orleans even with al army qusrtered
there. This price Of health in the summer
is careful attention to cleanliness and diet,
A city situated IS Wheeling is ought 10
be under rigid inspection In the matter Of
cleanliness about every mans premises.
Somebody Ia responsible, for s.agnant
water and waste matter wherever found,
and the responsibility ought 10 be indl-
vidualised with system and energy.
Ono Of the greatest benefits ever confer
red on great city was the money given by
Peabody TO improve the quarters OF the
London poor. By means OF his philan-
thropy the sanitary condition Of those
quartera was co much improved as 10 d.

A MUNIFICENT GIFT The London Pes.
Their Loud Gecsntly announced that Baron
Hirsch had given $2O0OO0 900 to be diatri
buted among the Hebrew communities of
Europe and Hebrew charities in proportion
corresponding to their necessities. This
news was contradicted, aud, in point of feet,
in this form it was inaccurate. The true
version is the following: About three months
ago, some days before the departure for
Copenhagen of the Emperor of Russia, Baron
Hirsch sent letter TO the Gar IN
which BIO offered sum Ct $l0,OO00OO to
found in Russia primary schools for He
brews and $1,000 to be ct The disposal OF
the Car for works OF charity. The Gar
wrote note on the letter, and requested
the Russian minister Of the interior to re-
port verbally upon it On his return TO Rus
STA The on=r thus remained Il dead letter
for three months. Daring this time those
who knew of it asked if Baron Hirsch,
Justly offended by this delay would not
withdraw his promise, and if such delay
did not expose this great and gen
erous idea to the risk Of lot being re-
allied. These fears are now at an end
On the return of the Car lie received the vcrosi
report of his minister Of the interior on the sub
ject, and signed his acceptance Of tho gift. The
$40 900. 600 are 10 be paid into the Bank OF Eng
land, and Baron Rothschld and Baron de Worms,
who wero appointed trustees, and who VIII be re-
placed in case of death, will receive the interest
of the sum so deposited. 1t is estimated that,
with its annual interest of about 100000, it
will bo possible to open 1000 schools, receiving
$4,000 children, who will thus be rescued from
Ignorance snd bad example. Never has such
munifcent gift been made By rich man in his
lifetime to the destitute.
